Prep: 15 min/ Roast: 45 min

I don’t know about you all, but I hate doing the dishes. Like…HATE. Most nights I like to have meals that require a minimal amount of items for preparation and cooking. Meal prepping can be time consuming enough, so who wants to finish all their cooking only to be staring down a sink overflowing with dishes? Well, have I got some good news for you! This meal requires five items: a cutting board, knife, sheet pan, bowl, and spoon. And even better, it can be ready in just about an hour. If that’s not a double win, I don’t know what is.

Ingredients:

3# pounds chicken thighs

2 TBS Garlic Chili sauce

½ tsp Cumin

¼ cup Olive oil

2 TBS minced garlic

2# Golden potatoes, diced

2 Leeks, thinly sliced

½ cup Greek yogurt

1 TBS Garlic

Zest and juice from one lemon

1 container Arugula

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. While the oven is preheating, dice the potatoes, slice the leeks, and mince the garlic. To save a step I always have a large tub of pre minced garlic in the refrigerator because I use it so often.
Whisk together the chili sauce, cumin, olive oil, and 2 TBS of garlic in a bowl and then add the potatoes and chicken. Coat evenly.
Evenly distribute the potatoes on a baking sheet and then place the chicken on top.

Roast for 15 minutes, toss the potatoes, and then scatter the leeks evenly over the pan and continue to roast for an additional 25 to 30 minutes.
While everything is roasting mix together the yogurt, 1 TBS of garlic, and lemon juice. Salt and pepper to taste.
Serve the chicken and potatoes warm over arugula and a dollop of the yogurt sauce.
